Quinn has been happily married for ten years. Her relationship with Ian is built on love, trust, and honesty. At least that's what she thought...until a four-letter word changed everything.
P.O.R.N.
After finding her husband alone in a rather awkward situation, Quinn starts to question her beliefs about their marriage.
While they've always had a healthy sex life, it was far from adventurous. She loves her husband, and he loves her, but the revelation allows worries to mount, and insecurities to grow.
After having a candid conversation with Ian, Quinn realizes that it all boils down to one very important question.
Is she willing to try anything once?
The answer is...yes.
MY REVIEW
That being said, I do really love that cover. It's stunning. This is the first book I'm reading from the author and I must admit, I really liked it. Especially, loved her writing style.
Anything Once focuses on a married couple Ian and Quinn, who are childless. Being married to Ian for over 10 years, Quinn thinks their relationship is going strong and steady, until she walks into Ian masturbating while watching porn. Self doubt and insecurities suddenly spread their ugly tentacles in her mind as she wonders what was wrong with their relationship.
Fortunately, Quinn after two weeks of silence, take that step to reach her husband and ask what she missed all along. Together they decide to explore their sexual life and the rest is for the readers to find out.
I love how the author captured the essence of relationships. She has addressed one of the important fact most of the married couples go through after a few years of their marriage.
The initial bliss of married life tends to get lost with how busy our lives are and when children and other responsibilities come along, many just go with the flow while struggling to catch up. Some couple stop to think what they've been missing and try to reignite the passion.
If you're in a relationship for so long and feel it's time to reignite that passion this book is definitely for you. It addresses the concern and I'm glad the characters have a positive approach toward the issue and I love how understanding they are with each other. Another thing I liked is the approach on women's self doubt and hesitation to explore certain things in their sexual life.
It's definitely worth the read. I'm looking forward to read more from this author. Cheers.

Quinn wrapped her arms around his waist and buried her face in his chest.
“Baby, you okay?”
She nodded.
“You sure?”
She nodded again. “My legs are a little wobbly.”
He laughed, then in one swoop, bent down to pick her up and carried her over to the couch. Quinn sat in his lap with her head resting against his shoulder. Ian waited to see what she’d say, how she’d react to him treating her so roughly, since he’d never been anything but gentle in their lovemaking.
She intertwined her fingers with his and started placing soft kisses on his neck. “I want to try.”
He rubbed his thumb across her knuckles. “Try what?”
She sat up to look at him. “More. Different ways. I’m willing to give anything a shot, once.” She stopped and smiled. “More than once if I like it.”
Ian sucked in a breath. “Really?”
Her tongue darted across her bottom lip before she sank her teeth into it and nodded.
“Sweetness, you don’t have to do that.”
His statement was met with a rolling of the eyes and muttering under her breath. Even after all these years, his Spanish was only slightly less rusty than when they’d first met. He managed to pick up the words “kind-hearted” and “idiot” during her quiet rant before she took a breath and placed her warm hands on either side of his face.
“I know I don’t ‘have’ to do this. The last twelve years of our relationship has proven that.”
Any rebuttal got silenced by the hard narrowing of her eyes.
“I want to do this. To explore new things.”
Sincerity radiated through her every word. This was not the outcome he’d ever expected, but the possibility of getting to have new experiences with his wife was an opportunity he wouldn’t let go to waste.
